Atene (Greek: Ἀτήνη) was a coastal (paralia) deme of Attica, belonging to the Antiochis tribe (phyle), with three representatives in the Boule. It bordered Anaphlystus to the north and Amphitrope in the east, in what is now the southern part of Saronikos municipality. It had an area of about 20 km2, including the valleys of Charaka, Hagia Photini and Thimari as well as Gaidouronisi. The area had been mostly uninhabited prior to the 5th century BC.

The Temple of Poseidon is an ancient Greek temple on Cape Sounion, Greece, dedicated to the god Poseidon. There is evidence of the establishment of sanctuaries on the cape from as early as the 11th century BC. Sounion's most prominent temples, the Temple of Athena and the Temple of Poseidon, are however not believed to have been built until about 700 BC, and their kouroi (freestanding Greek statues of young men) date from about one hundred years later. The material and size of the offerings at the Temple of Poseidon indicate that it was likely frequented by members of the elite and the aristocratic class. The Greeks considered Poseidon to be the "master of the sea". Given the importance to Athens of trade by sea and the significance of its navy in its creation and survival during the fifth century, Poseidon was of a particular relevance and value to the Athenians.
